Operation
The ORX 1400 supports all SDI video formats from 1.5Gbit/s to 12Gbit/s.
Data reception activity is indicated by the RX LED on the side of the
module. The module has two identical output channels.
Operation is fully automatic. The fiber input video rates are
automatically detected, reclocked and provided on the BNC output
connectors. No user settings are provided for this module. The module
supports hot swapping and hot plugging of connections.
Note:
If the RX LED is OFF this indicates that no signal is present, the signal is too
weak or is not a valid input.
Power
The module requires a clean 12V DC (7-24V DC) power source. An LED
is provided to confirm power is connected. A 12V DC power supply is
included with the module. If you are applying your own power source,
please provide a clean, 7-24V DC power source. Power consumption
information can be found in the technical specifications table.
Connections
The SDI outputs are connected to the corresponding 75 Ohm BNC
connections provided. The fiber connection is made to the fiber SFP
sub module as indicated on the module.
An example of a LC connector shown below.
Note:
The module is designed for use with SMF
(Singlemode) fiber cable.
Use the included dust plug to protect the optical connection from dust.
Power Lead Strain Relief
The module has a small hole in the case which is located above the
power connection. This prevents the power lead being accidentally
pulled out. Use the supplied tie-wrap and secure the lead as shown
below.
Optional Mounting Solutions
The optional RFR 1001 mounting bracket can be
used to permanently mount the module on any
surface or on 19” rack rails.
The optional RFR 1000-1 rack mount can be used to permanently
mount up to 14 yellobrik modules. In addition, the RFR 1000-1 can
provide full power redundancy for all mounted yellobriks.
Note:
The ORX 1400 is identical in terms of mounting and securing.
